LIT Program
You don't want to miss this!
If you want to serve at camp this summer, meet new friends, and go a little deeper with God, you'll want to be here. It's an entire week of working and learning together, in an intimate and fun camp setting. You must be 16-18 years of age by December 31, 2012.
Here's a little of what to expect:
- Leadership Training - how to be a leader people will follow, through integrity (who you are as a leader) and influence (what you do as a leader)
- Camp Skills Training, such as how to lead Archery, Rock-Climbing, Challenge Course, and so on
- Personal Development, exploring issues about our own faith and how we can share it with others
- Counseling Skills - learning how to work well with various kinds of kids in a camp setting, through discussions and role-play
- Hands-on work with the kids at Spring Break-Out Camp, practicing the skills you're learning
- Lots of laughs and fun, as you meet people who want to learn and grow, just like you do
Camp Dates and Fees
Timberline's LIT Program is offered once each year, and the camp fee for the week is $199. This fee includes everything: meals, materials, events, training, an LIT shirt, and somewhere to sleep. The dates for the 2012 program are:
- March 16-22 (Friday at 7:00pm until Thursday at 2:30pm)
On the first night there will be an evening snack, but no dinner. The gates generally open just a few minutes prior to the camp starting, so that our staff and facilities can be ready.
Application
Because LITs work with children during their training, they are required to go through a screening process similar to what our staff go through. This involves completing the Staff Application Form, three Reference forms, a criminal record check, and an interview. Please mark "LIT" on your application form. At this time, all forms must be printed out and either mailed or faxed; no online registration is available. The program fee must be mailed, and it will be returned in the event that a person is not accepted into the program.
Applications are due by February 28, 2012. We hope to see you here!
